The whisky is 85% wheat, 15% barley, and is distilled in pot stills. The whisky spends 7 years in Sauterne (dessert wine) casks from Bordeaux.
Meyer’s was a pleasant surprise that also confused me during my tasting. I knew it was a whisky and I knew it was French but it has a cognac-like profile. I got earthy cognac sitting in leather chair in a small home in the country side of France, not whisky. Meyers may not be to everyone’s taste when it comes to whisky, BUT after a big meal and you are lighting up a nice cigar, this would be an excellent choice for the price.
Price around $35 and worth the money for the flavor.
